Dr Strangetrump

The
triumph of ignorance…

.

I have hair, TOO!

George: How are
you coping after the barbarians stormed the fort?

.

Bill: Testing
alternative realities. Went to a movie festival.

.

George: Some
insight into saner societies?

.

Bill: That, yes. But
there were also re-mastered versions of classics. Dr Strangetrump, sorry, Dr
Strangelove. I watched that. Suddenly, it seemed very contemporary.

.

George: In
political, social, and economic arenas, paraphrasing John Neumann, can we expect
mutually assured self-destruction?

.

Bill: Looks like
it. Brace yourself. His policies, his personality, his loopiness will land us all in big trouble.

Voice-over

Embarrassing for
America that half their voters cannot understand either governance or global
issues. As The Economist points out this week, expect further healthcare
hardship, tax cuts for the rich subsidized by the poor, more racial and ethnic
unrest, trade wars further impoverishing poor Americans, global recession,
military cuts destabilizing Europe and Asia. It is the poor who voted this man in who will suffer most.And global
warming a hoax? With a narcissistic, thin-skinned, undisciplined conman pushing
conspiracies like that, those who voted for Trump could see even fewer
jobs in the US to apply for. Poor America. Poor world.
